Abstract
A spatially-homogeneous and anisotropic-cosmological model in a scalar-tensor theory proposed by Sen and Dunn (1971) is obtained when the source of the gravitational field is a perfect fluid with pressure equal to energy density and the metric is of Bianchi type-I. Various physical properties of the model have also been discussed.
